I'm pretty sure Les Kiss NEVER played in a winning SOO side .
Lol he should be nowhere near that list .
Yeah, just one of my favourites. There weren't too many wingers as smart as he was and he got everything out of his slender frame. And I didn't want to pick that Folau traitor.

So if Sailor, Tuquri, Carne, Rogers are also traitors that still leaves Rowdy, Kerry B, Alan Mc, Mick Hancock, Gagai, D Boyd, and Matt Sing.

People ought to stop bashing Paul Hauff - he was a great 1 series Origin player who went on to rep his country AFTER Origin. It was at test level he got found out. At club level he lost his spot to J O'Niel - as many players would have as Julian despite his grog issues was a very special talent.

Yep, the first four are/were traitors, they just can't hold a candle to Folau for talent, he was a freak. Once they leave, I have no interest in them. Rowdy was awesome as was Bowie. The others all gave great service, Kiss was just a favourite of mine, Dallas was another one. Not trying to justify the selection on merit.

Agree on Hauff.

Hauff was alright. But who would you have in my team? Schif or wesser?
Its a common headache selection in these sides. Noone really recalls a poor Qld fullback. Even Schif did well in his 1 game.

There's been some crappy Qld origin player performances, lots of em, but not really at fullback. Qld been spoiled here for a long time, from Scott to Rowdy and Belcher, O'Neil, Lockyer, O'Davis, Bowen, K Hunt, Billy, Boyd and GI.

Kiss was f**king hopeless. Boustead much better.

There's no way I'd put Wendell Sailor in. He never shone at the Origin level. 14 Origins - 1 Try.

I always wondered why Hauff never got a gig elsewhere. Looks like he moved to London in 96 after 4 years in reserve grade.

My team:

1. Gary Belcher
2. Clinton Schifcofske
3. Mal Meninga (captain/coach) & (gk)
4. Peter Jackson
5. Adam Mogg
6. Kevin Walters
7. TBA
8. David Shillington
9. Steve Walters
10. Sam Backo
11. Josh Papali'i
12. Gary Coyne
13. Neville Costigan
